Comment #2 on issue 259 by [email protected]: Feature request: Count data bytes when selecting some text
http://code.google.com/p/ulipad/issues/detail?id=259
I am just asking to count "bytes", not "characters". So you don't need to consider Chinese characters at all.
Just count the ascii bytes. That will be useful when developing some network-packet send-and-receive programs. And in many network protocols we need to count how many bytes are going to be transmitted during a sample session.
